Mobile 3G

About this...every time I have to full wipe, I have to check settings for the APN. Even though the network sends info, I tweak it to the original settings and it always work.

Full wipe solved my wi-fi.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Bakabon19:
im not use blagus kernel,i use kernel X8_CUSTOM.ftf inside the firmware folder.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Rycon33:
I'm curious as why the viber app also don't properly run on fxp030, still cannot make a call. D@mn viber app, ur very choosy.

That's the reason why I returned back to fxp028.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Bakabon19:
hopefully the next update all problems(kernel & ROM) can be fixed .. I like the latest kernel fxp 030:),but there is still a problem... so I'm back to linuxdx:D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] WARR10r:
will next update be official CM rom? or it will be as allways, private hero port? :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ponanovn:
The fxp-030 kernel does not seem to be that old, if you type "busybox uname -a" you see that the build date is 2 oct 10:07:08 2011

# busybox uname -a
Linux localhost 2.6.29-FXP #1 PREEMPT Sun Oct 2 10:07:08 EEST 2011 armv6l GNU/Linux

I'm using GDX v017 on FXP 028Kernel, and I found bugs. Vibration don't work, music will be played randomly for 10-20seconds unless I freeze the system music app. Does anyone have these bugs?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ponanovn:
The FXP kernel is made for the FXP ROM do not post bugs here if your using another ROM.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
new kernel uses new vibrator that works only on cm 7 rom

more and more features will require that you use provided kernel and in the future you will not be able even to boot without proper kenel

this is progress!

FXP team
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
if this is your opinion i suget to take a look on git !
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] junixquiaoit:
J' can u confirm that the kernel w/c is inside FXP v30 is the latest version or not?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] rav3n_pl:
No OC module in kernel in that (030) package. But it is more responsive than 028 OCed O_o

Edit: video recording is still not working for me.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] terranox:
Is v30 stable??? Have bugs???
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ponanovn:
Yes, the only bug I noticed is that I can't shoot video
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] terranox:
Is FXP better than GDX???
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] skyboyextreme:
Try both and use whatever works best for you....
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] terranox:
Differences???
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sapabg:
is v30 in the package from the first post or not?

anyway that one has the quetest incall sound ever...can't hear a thing...otherwise everything is good (have not tryed the video) phone is stable wifi works....little battery drain...like a strait line for 14hrs but I am calibrating and stuff so I'll get back on that later (hopefully in 5 days :D )...so finally is that the latest kernel and latest rom in the first post???? couse it says 2.6.29-FXP SEMCUser@SEMCHost...so???

thanks guys for the great work....keep it up!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] xtremeillusion:
I'm sorry for that. My phone is able to maintain data connection after I flashed GDX v017 on FXP 028Kernel, but FXP 030Rom wasn't able to on FXP 028Kernel.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] gawran1:
FXP 028 kernel + 030 ROM = wi fi problems, no data transfers, 030kernel + 030 ROM =wifi on equals reboot. Only 028 kernel + 028 ROM are working fine....
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ponanovn:
Both data and wifi is working for me with FXP030 ROM and the kernel that came with it.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] gawran1:
Good for you, your post did not solve my problem.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sapabg:
OK just found out...with BusyBox 1.18.2 WiFi dops...with 1.19 does not...so it seems that it's connected with the Busybox version...right now...I am trying to download something wut it does not start (1.19) but wifi stays connected...with 1.18.2 (I installed it because V6.sh) it didn't probably it's you problem too...I'll do some more tests and get back to you

EDIT1: so rebooted...the thing downloaded but that's it...I'll try a lower verson of BB

EDIT2: unpluget from the charger, connected to PC, USB Debugging ON and it works...with 1.19..(facepalm)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] gawran1:
If you found out the way how to enable wifi transfer on 028 kernel and v030 ROM tell me step by step please.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] rav3n_pl:
ADWL bug: when screen is locked you still can drop new apps from drawer on desktop and on buttons.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] deani77:
So far bug found on FXP Kernel and ROM:

1. Internet connection stop and need to reboot phone to make it work again while using 3G/H connection.

2. Voice while making call so slow even move volume slider to max.

But 030 smooth a lot compared to 028 and better battery consumption.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Chris_Castro:
Clarification

Just for my clarification (maybe others) and confirmation:

FXP 030 Kernel (1st Post) is OK, bugs with USB (New GB Drivers), no OC, no extra RAM? (175 x 182Mb)

FXP 030 Kernel (posted by Blagus) is not OK bc of Wi-fi reboot

FXP 030 ROM is OK, videocamera is the only noticeable bug

I am still using FXP028 Kernel and FXP030 ROM, mainly bc of OC, wi-fi is OK after a full wipe, 3G works fine. And my phone is E15a, even though now it shows E15i.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] gawran1:
I have now 028 kernel and 028 ROM but in SetCPU 600 is the max freq :/
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ponanovn:
For me the 030 kernel @ 600Mhz is much faster than OC kernel @ 768Mhz and USB mount works about 50% of the times I have tried it.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jahlovePL:
For me it's quite slowly too.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Dexter_prog:
have you tried using 3g? does it work?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] PaganBlood:
Hello!

I'm having problem with WiFi and data 3G/EDGE.

After about 15 minutes to navigate, but still connected browsing.

The rom is perfect, very fast, and with little power consumption. Congratulations to the developers.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Blagus:
Finally, FXP030 kernel: http://www.mediafire.com/?830j5v1qe556638

Do not mirror!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] rav3n_pl:
USB - works

WIFI - works

camera - only photos

OC - none
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] PaganBlood:
I'll have to do Wipe again?

Thank you.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] rav3n_pl:
No. Just flash kernel.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Chris_Castro:
Yes, 3G/H works.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] junixquiaoit:
Wew, confused!

I thought that the kernel that came with it is no good because of the previous posts after release.

I thought kernel is not good but when i flashed it with full wipe wifi worked and everything else. except cam shoot.

and now, Masta Blagus posted another kernel? Anyway, thanks FXP and Masta Blagus. will try which is better. :D

Also, a bug on the kernel that J gave is that Incoming Voice call's sound is low.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Chaosek:
I thought that now when SE finally helps developers with Xperia family progress in making new rom will be much faster.

But it seams that nothing really changed accept kernel.

Is there a hope that we will have fully working gingerbread this year? Really looking forward to that.

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] PaganBlood:
I still have problems with wifi FXP030 kernel. after 15 minutes, the navigation drops.

Only restarting to get back to work.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Rycon33:
Using latest kernel by blagus and fxp030 rom, every 1 or 2 hours, I cannot connect to internet thru wifi or 3g, always needed reboot to resolve it.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Blagus:
I already had that problem in FXP024 and FXP030 with 028 kernel.

Keep in mind, this release is not 100% perfect and not official.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Dare-Devil Inside:
Yeah, I never ask for ETAs but this is a good question...
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] rav3n_pl:
I have no problems on my wifi... not using GSM data transmission
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sapabg:
ok...kernel version 2.6.29 blagus@FreeXperia #1, mod version CM-7.1.0-........sound is good now, WiFi and 3G works...taking pictures (i gues VGA) no video...so far so good :-) keep it up Blagus...

P.S. what I noticed is that now the battery comsumtion is like 50% Android system...and with the stock kernel was 50% Cell standby...I can't say if it is good or not couse I forgot my WiFi on overnight like 8h and I am at 35%...I guess it is good...
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] PaganBlood:
Hello!

It Seems my wifi stops working faster When using applications such as Apptroid. When you only use the Market and the Internet, not on my wifi problems.

Sorry my bad English.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] AntwnhsAnt:
I've been using this ROM (030) with the 030 kernel by FXP for 2 days and they're awesome...

Really good performance and perfect battery life.

The bugs I noticed so far are the video recording, the led when battery is under 10% is going crazy and the speaker's volume is low.

FreeXperia team thank you for your effords to make our devices better!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] velnens123:
How's the gaming performance in FXP030?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] rav3n_pl:
Smooth!

I only play Angy Birds ;] No lags :)

Boot time is amazing :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Chris_Castro:
FXP 030

Today I flashed kernel version 2.6.29 blagus@FreeXperia #1...Even without OC phone feels more responsive. Great work!

I just had a round of NFS Shift and it lags a bit, but it doesn't take away the fun of it.

Wi-fi works, USB works, 3G works. :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Rycon33:
awhile ago i got this info on Arc thread.

rejoice!

http://www.cyanogenmod.com/blog/cyanogenmod-7-1-released

they mentioned "today's release" but it seems like the download link for xperia's are not ready yet, but anyways, still something to be really excited about

EDIT: thanks rav3n_pl, didn't noticed it was listed as shakira LOL
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] rav3n_pl:

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Ryukenden:
Just a quick question: Do I flash the new baseband AFTER i update to 2.3.3 or before?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] -ReaL-:
Only update.zip (75.63 MB)

http://www.multiupload.com/EFXB4CIVYG

Full CM7_RC1_X8_003.rar (137.12 MB)

http://www.multiupload.com/S6X1B5DWHT
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CaptainZap:
As the first post says, flash baseband, wait 60 seconds and then go to xrecovery and flash rom.

@Ryukenden: Please post your impressions about the rom, like what works and what doesn't. Thanks.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Ryukenden:
I ask because whenever i flash it, it says everything went OK with flashing, but my baseband doesnt change... weird
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CaptainZap:
Well, I couldn't resist the temptation and I flashed it anyways... I'll be updating the post later.

So wifi can't turn on, angry birds installs fine, app2sd works with some apps others wont work, quadrant gives 1030 but first 2 3D tests are black I think because 3D is not working (tried nfs shift but doesn't load)... other than these few problems the rom looks and feels really amazing...

@PhonerX: Does wifi work for you ?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] PhonerX:
I flashed to 003. So far it is the greatest ROM I have used so far, stable and no reboots. Waiting for the next releases with fixed Wifi and 3MP Camera. Also noticed that Settings->Aboute phone->Battery use Background picture breaks at the top.

Another 003 advantage that was not mentioned is that it has more languages included.

Great job jerpelea!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] nobooody:
Is it possible to change baseband version by replacing build.prop file?

and how to do the first step ?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] djtimon89:
TEST v003

wifi no working :(
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] PhonerX:
Confirm: 003 build is without Wifi.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] PhonerX:
Just flash with the flasher from included BASEBAND folder
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jamesbond22:

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] esirad:
Video playback is not smooth.

Cant work with ap2sd.

Rom is awesome.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] oisteink:
Out of curiosity: why do you develop for that perticular baseband?

Just a bit bored here after setting up ubuntu + jdk + eclipse + CM repo + your git on my old laptop, only to find out that you can't compile android later than froyo on 32bit. SO.. Here we go again on my desktop pc :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] 275139568:
when task killer kill all -> reboot..
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] 275139568:
also the rom is quite lag compared with other roms even SE 2.1

scrolling and open apps/drawer
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
yes you can ;)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Yerry:
Does the main image include xrecovery? To easily go back..
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] LFSPovo:
Yes it does ;)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jamesbond22:
Do you have runned Skype or Root Explorer?

Reebot when Root Explorer is closed/killed. That same as on rom MiniCM.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jahlovePL:
Any ideas how to install it? There's kernel.sin in file.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Rycon33:
i'm also trying to figure out the same thing

our device still doesn't have the "how-to" on the CM site

am a little hesitant to try it out on the current fxp kernel, but i think ima still do it anyway
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ChavitoArg:
FLASHTOOL! advanced, bundle creation, it will make a ,ftf file!

you need an unlocked bootloader.

if i help you press thanks!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] 7OH:
It makes the same file (bit-2-bit) as kernel from FXP30.

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] rav3n_pl:

I want to try some OC, x8oc module will work on this non-stock kernel?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dimbata:
can someone tell us how to install the rom please?!? thanks!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] wantutri:
Hi, just want to ask if the one attached in this thread is the same as what is posted here - http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=stable

Thanks,
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] timpot07:
+1... They look the same...can someone confirm this?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dotsen9:
well those bugs are same,what i see different is in settings->Performance->Use 16bit transparency,and correct if i'm wrong:)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] fabiosilva:
So there's no advantage of flashing it at this point?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dotsen9:
not really,at least for me
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] WARR10r:
FXP30 kernel, have no problems with wifi, but allmost cant hear when calling someone. volume is TOO LOW. so im sadly reverting to FXP28 kernel :(
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sapabg:
try the one blagus posted it has no problems with the sound...but WiFi/3G stops transmitting after few minutes....
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] WARR10r:
so i will revert to OC kernel maybe.. it is, for now, the most stable IMHO
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Paschalis:
CM7.1 Offically Supports Xperia X8

Hmm..

CM7.1 release, and Xperia X8 is Officially in the list! ;)

CM7.1 Announcement

So, the official version, is the FXP030? Of FXP Team?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Dexter_prog:
The official version is the one on the CM site. It says it clearly in the first post of this thread that FXP is not an official rom of CM.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] fabiosilva:
What we want to know is the really differences between this ROM and the official one.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dimbata:
I read the posted thread and found out that our device is named SHAKIRA ... is there any differences between x8 devices and most of all how can i install this NEW ROM!? Thanks!!!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Paschalis:
In CM website, says that FXP Team is working with CM..

So, FXP will update this thread, with their official CM Rom?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] fabiosilva:
I don't think so.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] kulen:
Is there any call recorder software that works with this ROM?

That can record both sides?

Thank you
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Chris_Castro:
Official ROM

Has anyone tried to flash ROM from CM Website?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] velnens123:
I haven't tried it yet, but I will try it Today. (very busy right now :D)

---------- Post added at 03:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:20 PM ----------

Can anyone please post Neocore result with FXP030 kernel and rom?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ponanovn:
Im using it with the kernel that came with it in the .zip file

Here is .ftf bundle with official CM 7.1.0 kernel and loader for unlocked bootloader (Flash with flashtool)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Dare-Devil Inside:
Is there any differences between this one and that one. Site is down, so I can't download it for test
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ponanovn:
There is some differences in CM-settings like 16-bit color option and the kernel uses 5.0.2.6 CWM-recovery (Dont know if the FXP-030 kernel has 5.0.2.6 or older)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dotsen9:
But it have same bugs?(speaker volume is too low,can't shoot videos).
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] fabiosilva:
I think this version should be called Nightly and not Stable.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] lovex8:
I tried it . It just like the FXP030, camera is vga and can't record video:(.

Maybe there is some improvement I did't find:rolleyes:.

It is smooth and stable enough to daily use.

A good ROM anyway:p. It will be better in the future :D.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] deani77:
How do you create the FTF file from the kernel.sin provided in the zip file. Any special software needed? :confused:
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ponanovn:
You need unlocked loader.sin (same as all custom kernels) and choose advanced in flashtool and create bundle
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] catd3ViL:
Hi FXP,

if I run through a virtual(eg: vmware or vbox), I could do flash your rom?

Just ask..

Thanks in advance.. :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dmcb123:
When i try to install ROM manager it asks me to select which one of the supported phones am i installing it onto and x8 hasnt been there. now that x8 is officially supported will it be added to that list?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ASHLEY117:
Installed cm7.1 from cm site and using fxp028 oc kernel earlier today. So far no bugs, in call volume ok, oc @710 working fine, smooth and fast with or without oc. wifi works fine and keeps connection well. Good all round rom. Sweet!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jahlovePL:
My phone just freeze after conected to PC via USB first time. Have to get out battery. Now is normall, I think.

CM7 kernel and ROM.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Chris_Castro:
Blagus Kernel and CM7 (Official)

Today I've flashed Kernel.sin (thanks to ponanovn .ftf bundle) and CM7 from the Cyanogen website (CWM Recovery). Phone is stable, but I felt less responsive than using Blagus Kernel, so I kept CM7 from website and rolled back Kernel.

I still need to test incall volume.

Wi-fi, 3G and USB work.

I still have 175Mb RAM, so I don't know what happened about the extra 7Mb (182Mb)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] angel08:
http://www.cyanogenmod.com/blog/cyanogenmod-7-1-released

apology is the same version? or are they different? thanks
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] PaganBlood:
I still have problems with wifi/3G.

And very low call volume.

Thank you.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] rav3n_pl:
Look there:

http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=shakira

Waitin for nightly :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] deani77:
I already did that but when flash I get flash aborted.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] xtremeillusion:
did you hold on to back button while flashing custom kernel? you cannot hold off until the custom kernel has flashed to your phone.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] deani77:
I don't have problem flashing other kernel before this (already do it for so many time since 1st custom kernel uploaded here).

Anyway currently try kernel come with CM official ROM uploaded by pananovm. Old problem still happened, 3G will be off after sometime and reboot to make it work again.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] xtremeillusion:
I have faced that problem too, my data connection will be lost after 15-20mins. What I did was flashing GDX v017, it solved this problem, but there's a bug after flashed GDX on FXP kernel, there's no vibration feature.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Rycon33:
so far CM rom and fxp028 kernel is doing good on my phone

no data disconnection either

hopefully the official kernel will be released soon
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] xtremeillusion:
Where did you downloaded the CM rom for our X8 from? This link from CM site seems to be taken off, i tried to download it yesterday night, but the download suddenly stopped and the link was not available anymore at this website.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Rycon33:
i downloaded early yesterday while it' was still there, pm'd you

EDIT: it's still there
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] nrgmaster:
well I've just checked and it's still available here
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] xtremeillusion:
Very sorry, i didn't click on Shakira to look for the link.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] deani77:
May I know which kernel you are using right now... The one come with the ROM or OC Kernel?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Rycon33:
am using the kernel that came with FXP028 package(not the OC one) and the rom is the official CM rom, that combo seems to be stable for me and data connection is very good on wifi and 3g
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
hy all

as stated on title

this is an development thread

so every monday we will release weeklies on this thread

roms having latest features and fixes not merged to cm

J

FXP Team
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Rycon33:
well, that clears things, thanks!

one quick question J, the ROM in the CM site, under which kernel it is suppose to be run? it's official but everybody seems to be at a lost since we still don't have the "how to" there

regards
